A Vision for Young Londoners

Dear Cllr Hamish Pollock,

We are writing with a quick update with our Vision for Young Londoners, a vision statement that involves a cross-sector alliance setting out a unified strategy and set of values to help deliver a brighter future for London’s young people.

In the past two months we have:

  • Increased supporting organisations to over 87, and supporting councillors to 36. We also have six local authorities now signed up. See the full list here.
  • We have recently launched a new website, which we will be updating with new good practice as findings from our youth voice programme.
  • Our first mailing on the Vision and our youth voice programme, 25% of the population – 100% of the future, has also gone out to supporters, which you can read here. Let me know if you want to be added to future Vision mailings.
  • We are planning to take this forward with the GLA, the new mayor and London Assembly members, and will be meeting their different teams to see how we can help them provide better opportunities for young people.

The continued support of councillors and local leaders in the coming months is critical in showing a united appetite for youth policy to be on the agenda.

If you have any questions, or additional information, please let us know. We shall continue to keep you updated periodically as we go forward.
Kind regards,

Matthew Walsham Partnership for Young London
